10月宏观数据分析：10月经济数据继续走弱，核心通胀回升是亮点

Report Industry Investment Rating No relevant content provided. Core Viewpoints of the Report - In October 2025, the macro - economic data continued to decline, and the recovery momentum needed to be strengthened. However, there were improvement signals in CPI and PPI, and the M1 growth rate remained high. The domestic economy's recovery was a long - term process, and the real estate market's transformation and adjustment also took time. The "Expand domestic demand, Anti - involution" policy would be an important long - term measure. The financial market was in a state of "weak reality, strong expectation", and the market sentiment was continuously improving. The macro - economy and asset prices in 2025 were expected to continue the upward repair trend [3][34]. Summary by Directory 1. Manufacturing PMI - In October, the manufacturing PMI was 49.0%, down 0.8 percentage points from the previous month, and the manufacturing prosperity declined. The PMI of large, medium, and small enterprises all decreased and were below the critical point. Among the 5 classification indexes, the supplier delivery time index was at the critical point, while the production, new orders, raw material inventory, and employment indexes were all below the critical point [4]. - The non - manufacturing business activity index in October was 50.1%, up 0.1 percentage points from the previous month, rising to the expansion range. The construction industry business activity index was 49.1%, down 0.2 percentage points, and the service industry business activity index was 50.2%, up 0.1 percentage points. The decline in manufacturing PMI indicated insufficient demand and weak economic recovery momentum [7]. 2. CPI and PPI - In October 2025, the national CPI rose 0.2% year - on - year and 0.2% month - on - month. Food prices decreased year - on - year, while non - food prices increased. Other than food and tobacco, six of the seven major categories of prices increased year - on - year, and one decreased [8][9]. - The national PPI decreased 2.1% year - on - year in October, with the decline narrowing by 0.2 percentage points, and turned from flat to a 0.1% increase month - on - month. The purchase price of industrial producers also showed similar trends. The "Anti - involution" policy had achieved some results, and the PPI was expected to turn positive in 2026 [11][12]. 3. Import and Export - In October 2025, China's exports decreased 1.1% year - on - year, imports increased 1.0% year - on - year, and the trade surplus was $900.7 billion. Exports to the US decreased, while exports to ASEAN increased. Despite the poor performance in October, exports were expected to remain strong in 2025, and the real risk for foreign trade was the potential decline in global demand [14][16]. 4. Credit and Money Supply - At the end of October 2025, the stock of social financing scale was 437.72 trillion yuan, a year - on - year increase of 8.5%. The increment of social financing scale in the first ten months was 30.9 trillion yuan, more than the same period last year. The overall credit in October was weak, indicating insufficient credit confidence and demand from residents and enterprises.

The total retail sales of consumer goods increased 2.9% year - on - year. Consumption growth continued to decline, and the growth rates of automobile, catering, and real - estate - related consumption were weak. From January to October, the national fixed - asset investment (excluding rural households) decreased 1.7% year - on - year, and the growth rates of manufacturing, infrastructure, and real - estate development investment continued to decline [23][26]. 6. Real Estate Market - From January to October, the sales area and sales volume of new commercial housing decreased year - on - year, and the decline continued to expand in October. The new construction, construction, and completion of real estate were at a low level. The inventory of commercial housing decreased slightly. The real estate market was still in the adjustment stage, but it was expected to stop falling and stabilize in the first half of 2026 [27][33]. 7. Summary and Outlook - In general, the macro - economic performance in October was weak, but there were improvement signals in inflation indicators and M1. The "Expand domestic demand, Anti - involution" policy was crucial. The financial market was in a state of "weak reality, strong expectation", and the macro - economy and asset prices were expected to continue the upward repair trend in 2025. It was necessary to track policy implementation, observe price recovery, and wait for positive macro - economic signals [34][35].
